Hi!

How should --add-pois-to-areas work? Here is a Zoo:http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=28.40885&lon=-16.56398&zoom=17&layers=B000... but it has got neighter icon nor can it be found in the POI search. How is this option expected to work?

TIA, Dani

First off all, you may need to add an area=yes tag to the polygon, in order to mkgmap know it's an area. Second, you need a corresponding tourism=zoo line in your points file, otherwise the poi won't be created. I've seen we have amenity=zoo in the default points style, but in the wiki zoos are said to be tagged as tourism=zoo. Probably we should add the latter to default style.

Hi Carlos!

It was already inside the points file. Should then also buildings get an area=yes (e.g. here "my" Aldi-Supermarket: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=48.090925&lon=11.507215&zoom=18&layers=B00...) or do we need an additional --add-poi-to-buildings beside add-poi-to-areas?

No, area=yes is not needed, because as opposed to a node, when a way gets tagged with "building=*", it's clear that it's meant to be an area. You only need area=yes for ways that normally aren't areas, such as highway=residential. -Martin

But the Aldi is not found when I search for Supermarkets or by Name.

OK, I just checked my own garmin map and the Aldi is present and searchable. It was catched by this line in my points-file: shop=supermarket [0x2e02 resolution 20] Looks like some rule catched it before. Do you have a rule for buildings or housenumbers in your points-file? And is it above the supermarket rule? if so, just move it somewhere below - always make sure the "more important" rules are on top or use "continue" if you want both to be triggered. -Martin

Now there is both: area=yes, and a correct points file, but no Loro Parque. Do you have this POI in your Canary map? TIA, Dani

Hi All! Now I solved my problem with the add-pois-to-areas but I do not completely understand it. With this line in the options file, I do not get POIs: levels = 0:23, 1:22, 2:21, 3:20, 4:19, 5:18, 6:16, 7:12 This line works fine: levels = 0:24, 1:22, 2:20, 3:18, 4:16, 5:12 What is wrong with the first line? TIA, Dani
